Federal Grants

Unlike loans, grants are not repaid unless, for example, you are awarded funds incorrectly or you withdraw from school prior to the planned end of the term. All federal grants are awarded to students with financial need. The amount of your Federal Pell Grant depends on your cost of attendance, expected family contribution, enrollment status (full or part-time) and whether you attend for a full academic year or less. To receive a FSEOG you must first be eligible and receive a Federal Pell Grant. The amount of your FSEOG depends on your financial need.
